GE WD1X1316 Dishwasher Drain Plunger and Armature

Restore proper drainage and keep your dishwasher running efficiently with this essential OEM component.

If your dishwasher is not draining, leaking during cycles, or making unusual buzzing noises, a faulty drain plunger and armature may be the cause. The GE WD1X1316 Drain Plunger and Armature acts as the mechanical control for your dishwasher’s drain valve, opening and closing the path for water to exit at the correct time. When this part wears out or becomes damaged, it can lead to standing water, poor cleaning results, or leaks. Replacing it restores proper drainage and cycle performance. Installation requires access to the underside of the dishwasher—be sure to disconnect power and water before beginning and remove the lower access panel for safe replacement.
